1. Tissue regeneration a. Your body triggers the “inflammatory response”. More blood is sent to the area of the cut. Why? it dialtates the blood vessels so it can increase the speed of blood cells and other substances to fight the infection and repair the injury fast and the damage cell can repair the tissue
b. A scab is formed at the site of the cut. i. What is the scab made out of? Which cells make that protein? a clot filled with blood which contains fibrin (a protien)
ii. What is the function of the scab?
the fibrin binds the edges of the wound together and stops the bleeding when the structure of the clot dries and a scab is formed to seal the wound and help prevent infection
c. The scab is replaced by “what tissue”? the scab is replaced by the granulation tissue
d. What structures will NOT be replaced when the scar tissue is formed? depending on how deep the cut is, hair, sebaceous glands, and sweat glands will not be replaced
